Company was formerly Eliyon, the people search company. Their previous model (may be the same model still) was selling to enterprises - F500 companies. Now they seem to be targetting end users, with their google-esque search bar (on their home page).
Venrock is a backer. Previous customers include Oracle, Lockheed Martin, Wachovia, IBM, Microsoft, and Staples
